SAMUEL FROEHLICI-I, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.

susPENDER-END.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Iatent No. 509,306, dated November21, 1893. Application led April 6, 1893. Serial No. 469,280. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern,.-

Be it known that I, SAMUEL FRoEHLICH,a citizen of the United States,residing at New York, in the county and State of New York, have inventednew and useful Improvements inSuspender-Ends, of which the following isa specification.

The object of-this invention is to provide a suspender-end withadjustable tabs.

The peculiar and novel construction of my suspender end is pointed outin the following specification and claim and illustratedin theaccompanying drawings in which- Figure 1 represents an elevation of mysuspender end. Fig. 2 is a longitudinal section in the plane x Fig. l.Fig. 3 is an elevation of one of the tabs.

In the drawings the letter A designates a ring to which the tabs B C areattached and which is intended to be connected with a suspender trimmingin any suitable manner.

For the purpose of connecting the tabs B C tothe ringA I use a flexiblebracket D and a pivot E.

In the examples shown in Figs. l, 2 and 3 the flexible bracket D is madeintegral with the tab B and this bracket is passed through the ringAfaud bent over the inner or upper end of the tab C as shown in Fig. 2andthen said end is secured in position by the pivot E. This pivot maybe hollow or solid. In this case the tab C is free to swing on the pivotE so that its outer end can readily be adjusted toward and from theouter end ot' the tab B or thatv said outer end of the tab C can adjustitself toward and from the outer end of the tab B as may be .required bythe movements of the person wearing the suspenders.

I am aware that suspender trimmings have been made in'which both tabsswing on a` pivot (see patent to Altmann, No. 255,404, dated March 28,1882) but in this case the pivot is secured in a metal plate which formspart of the trimming, so that the swinging tabs can only be used inconnection with this l through the ring A and to overlap the inner endof the other tab, and a pivot extending through the bracket and thetabssubstantially as described.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of twosubscribing witnesses.

SAMUEL FROEHLICH.
